Boomers Quote by Anonymous
““Boomers, the more than 76 million people born between 1946 and 1964, began turning 65 three years ago and all will have reached that age by 2030. All Millennials, the 82 million people born between 1981 and 2000, will have entered prime-working years - the age group from 25 to 55 - by the end of 2025. The group sandwiched in between, Generation X, is just 57 million people. The result: 25- to 34-year-olds will make up 22.5 percent of the workforce by 2022, compared with 21.6 percent in 2012, the Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates. The share of America's oldest employees, those over 55, will expand even faster - to 25.6 percent from 20.9 percent, led by people 65 and older.””
